Conscience and Its Enemies (ePub)

“As a critic of liberalism, George is devastating. Generally attributing honest motives to his opponents, he nevertheless ruthlessly exposes [their] sophistries.”—National Review
 
“Puts George’s highly burnished philosophical and constitutional learning on full display. . . . George speaks for a sizable number of conscientious objectors to America’s ruling liberal secularism.” —The New York Times Book Review
 
“Not a dull or insignificant page in the whole volume. . . . I don’t think we get better, or more consequential, commentary on the modern crisis.” —The Washington Times
 
“Could not be more timely. A treasure trove of thought-provoking reflections by one of the best minds of our time.” —Mary Ann Glendon, from the foreword
 
“Brilliant . . . Should be required reading.” —Commentary
 
“George’s claim to that title [‘This country’s most influential conservative Christian thinker’] is made abundantly clear in this collection of incisive, accessible essays, which seek to expose and confront the dogmas of liberal secularism while also directing and deepening modern conservatism. . . . Intended for a wide audience, the book deserves one.” —Claremont Review of Books
 
“An important primer on the most pressing issues of our time . . .  George’s incomparable expertise will give even the most seasoned reader new insights.” —The Catholic World Report
 
“Few thinkers speak as clearly as Robert P. George. . . . He is a model democratic citizen. . . . The book offers some of the strongest arguments at all levels of public discourse, from anthropology to the meaning of conscience and marriage.” —Library of Law and
